When the EMERGENCY terminal is grounded by the alarm
sensor while both of the MAIN switch on the rear panel
and the POWER button on the front panel are turned ON,
emergency recording starts automatically overriding all the
other settings even during timer recording or the unit is in
stop mode.
•Emergency recording is not performed while the MAIN
switch or POWER button is turned OFF or while timer
recording stand-by mode.
•The setting of the <Recording> menu cannot be
changed during normal recording or alarm recording.
When changing setting during recording, stop

when the “Alarm Input” in the <Recording> menu is
set to “Off,” the alarm input cannot be accepted for 5
minutes. When you stop recording during this time,
the setting change of the <Recording> menu is
